  abstract     = {The APS-Upgrade storage ring features a diverse group of vacuum chambers which includes eight NEG (non-evaporable getter) coated aluminum chambers and two copper coated stainless steel keyhole-shaped chambers per sector (40 total). Each chamber contains a 22 mm diameter electron beam aperture; the keyhole chambers also include a photon extraction antechamber. The chambers vary in length of approximately 289 ’ 792 mm and fit within the narrow envelope of quadrupole and sextupole magnets. Each design is a balance of functionality, manufacturability, and installation space. An innovative CAD skeleton model system and ray tracing layout accurately determined synchrotron radiation heat loads on built-in photon absorbers and the internal envelope of the keyhole antechamber. Chamber designs were optimized using thermal-structural FEA for operating and bakeout conditions. The group of chambers require complex manufacturing processes including EDM, explosion-bonded metals, furnace brazing, and welding with minimal space. This paper describes the design process and manufacturing plan for these vacuum chambers including details about FEA, fabrication plans, and cooling/bakeout strategies.},
